The Rug Lyrics

I couldn't stop walking

My feet knew where they were going

But my mind had no idea

The tall trees stood taller as my body grew smaller

And I just kept walking

As the sound of my footsteps grew further and further away

The music grew louder, the minutes became hours

But I just kept walking

As the pinecones became boulders

And the boulders became mountains

The rivers became oceans

And the oceans spilled over

As I touched them

Their eyes grew wild

Then they smiled

And I knew it was alright

Oh, I knew it was alright

I couldn't stop watching

My hands move across my body

They held me above the ground

I melt into color, we become one another

And I just kept watching

As the sky knelt to the sea

And I filled the space in between

The waves pulled me under

I am one with the mother

And I just kept watching

As the patterns on the water

Spread out farther and farther

Onto strangers, onto friends

They went deep into my skin

They moved through me

And I saw them there

When I closed my eyes

And I knew it was alright

Oh I knew it was alright
